Hi all , picked my new RS3 last night from Dundee Audi.
Spec includes
Catalunya Red
Matrix headlights,
B&o,
Privacy glass,
Folding mirrors,
Tps monitoring,
SS seats,
Drove home about 30 miles and I have to say very impressed with the matrix headlamps way better then the standard Leds on my old s3.
The engine/exhaust sound on start up was okay two or three pops and bangs, and then quietened down after a few seconds, on the road it is quite subdued until you give a bit of
Welly, that suits me fine don't like it to be too noisy.
Just back from a long drive this afternoon 250 miles on some good twisty fast roads, very happy with the way it handled and soaked up the bumps on the standard suspension, so I think I made the right choice to leave off Mag ride.
The brakes are very good with good feel and great stopping power.
The engine is just sublime it pulls hard from low revs and just keeps going, didn't rev it too high yet, will wait till it gets more miles on it, oh and it sounds fantastic.
The gearbox is a bit slow to change down in auto, okay for slower driving, using the manual change is far better for quicker driving.
The virtual cockpit gives you all the info that is needed, looks superb and easy to read.
First time with SS seats, feel good but will need longer in them before I can say if they are worth paying extra for.
So far so good.
